[R] New Versions

[Lara Jamieson]

Hi,

Problems with .Random.seed. with both versions released this year - a
first attempt to use any random number generator gives the following
error:

> rnorm(1)
Error in rnorm(1) : .Random.seed[0] is not a valid Normal type
> .Random.seed[0]
numeric(0)
> .Random.seed
[1]  6615 29074  9812

Removing the .Random.seed and letting R find another one fixes the problem
but doesn't seem ideal.

Is this a problem with installation, a general bug or a Linux interface
problem?

The new versions have been installed on a number of our Linux machines and
all seem to have the same problem.

------------

In the April release in-line editing doesn't appear to work.  Again is
this a bug or a system problem?

Any ideas and help, will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Lara
